Overclocking Computers with VIA C3

VIA C3 saw the development of the VIA Cyrix III line. The bases of VIA C3 processors are cores such as Samuel2, Ezra, Ezra-T, and Nehemiah. Because of their 0.13-micrometer technology, the development of these processors is characterized by increased operating frequency, low heat emission, and reduced supply voltage. For example, the Ezra core's supply voltage is 1.35 V, lower than this parameter for Samuel2 (1.6 V). VIA C3 processors are characterized by low power consumption, which allows them to use coolers without fans.
